Kyrene de la Estrella Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in the Kyrene Elementary District in Phoenix, Arizona. The school has 428 students and is located at 2620 E Liberty Ln, Phoenix, AZ 85048.

In recent years, Kyrene de la Estrella has seen a decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from a high of 105 out of 1,109 Arizona elementary schools in 2017-2018 to 525 out of 909 in 2024-2025. The school's academic performance, as measured by proficiency rates on state assessments, is generally below the district and state averages across grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's 5th-grade science proficiency rate was 34%, compared to the district average of 44% and the state average of 34%.

Interestingly, the school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups. While Hispanic students have performed relatively well, ranking in the top 30% of Arizona elementary schools in 2020-2021, other subgroups, such as female students, Asian students, and multi-racial students, have struggled, ranking in the bottom 50% of schools. Additionally, the school's per-student spending has fluctuated over the years, ranging from $7,220 in 2019-2020 to $9,779 in 2018-2019. Compared to nearby schools within the Kyrene Elementary District, such as Kyrene de la Sierra School and Kyrene De Los Lagos School, Kyrene de la Estrella's performance is generally lower, suggesting the school may need to implement targeted interventions and adjust its instructional strategies to improve student outcomes.
